Square D PK15GTACP Ground Bar Kit 125A Load Center

Product Description

The Square D By Schneider Electric PK15GTACP is a ground bar kit designed for use with 125A main lugs and 100A main breaker load centers rated for 12 to 20 circuits. The kit provides a dedicated grounding bus that bonds equipment grounding conductors to the load center enclosure, a required connection when the panel is installed as a service entrance. Electricians add this kit when the load center does not include a factory-installed ground bar or when the installation requires a separate grounding bus for code compliance. At 0.16 pounds, it ships as a single unit and installs without specialized tooling.

This ground bar kit is intended for residential and light commercial electrical distribution panels. It is specifically called out as necessary when the load center serves as service entrance equipment, where NEC requirements mandate a main bonding jumper and a grounded grounding path. The kit supports panels configured for 12 to 20 circuit positions, covering the most common residential load center sizes in this amperage class.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and applicable local codes. Always verify that utility power and the main disconnect are de-energized before working inside the load center enclosure. Secure the ground bar to the enclosure per manufacturer instructions and ensure all equipment grounding conductors are properly landed and torqued to the terminal ratings marked on the bar. Do not install neutral conductors on the ground bar in a sub-panel application.
